Pain in hands - advagraf & cellcept

Hi. I'm new to the site. I live in France and had a liver transplant in Paris in June 17. Every thing seems fine at the moment except since the transplant I have pains in my fingers and shoulders. I take advagraf and cellcept. Does anyone else suffer from anything similar?

I am on the same drug and I haven't suffered with any pains in arms or hands it's one of the better immuno suppresents as it's slow releasing... Maybe it's your body readjusting to building muscle back up.... I would go to your doctor though if it's concerning you x

I was getting lots of aches and pains for just over a year after transplant. Everything has stabilised since going back to the gym although I still get the odd stiff neck or shoulder. It's probably too soon for you to join a gym but some light exercise at home should help. I'd check with your consultant before starting any physical activity first.
